Abstract

A significant portion of the field of nanomedicine is predicated on being able to target nanoparticles to sites of disease. However, in vivo biodistribution and clearance of nanoparticles are poorly understood. In this study, a novel formulation of near-infrared fluorescent InAs(ZnS) quantum dots was synthesized and coated with a systematically increasing chain length of PEG. We found that varying PEG chain length resulted in major changes in organ/tissue-selective biodistribution and clearance from the body.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
